This past Saturday, the UCF Knights basketball team defeated the Texas Tech Red Raiders in a high intensity game. The atmosphere of Addition Financial Arena was electric with the famous “frond warning” student section. Knight Nation showed up and showed out, however, the usual UCF fans weren’t the only ones in attendance at the game. The Knights also had some celebrities in attendance as well.
Pittsburgh Steelers’ wide receiver, Antonio Brown, was seen in attendance. Brown was visiting UCF in support of his son, Antonio Brown Jr. Brown Jr. is a 2026 basketball recruit who was visiting the campus. They both decided to drop by the game to see the Knights beat the Red Raiders. After the win, a viral video was posted with Antonio Brown dancing in the locker room with the team.

Grammy Award winner, “TI” Clinton Harris, was also spotted at the game. He was alongside UCF transfer Mikey Williams. Mikey is a top commit, as he was considered a five-star prospect in high school. He transferred to UCF from Memphis and will begin playing for the Knights next year.
UCF’s popularity only seems to be rising. It seems like everyone wants to experience the excitement and energy found on the campus of the University of Central Florida. You never know who might show up at a UCF sporting event.
